PANews reported on March 8th, citing CCTV News, that the White House has temporarily halted the release of a federal security bulletin warning that a conflict with Iran could pose a greater threat to the U.S. homeland. The bulletin, jointly drafted by the FBI, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), and the National Counterterrorism Center (NCTC), was originally intended for distribution to state and local law enforcement agencies. A Trump administration official stated that the White House requested a delay in the bulletin's release to further review its accuracy. The official stated that the document, drafted by the Department of Homeland Security's Office of Intelligence and Analysis, was "not in-depth enough and not well-written" and needed reassessment. The White House stated that it is standard procedure for departmental intelligence bulletins to be reviewed before release to ensure that information released is accurate, up-to-date, and fully verified.
